That sounds like a simulation model. Those are best done with an OO
database or a specialized data store for whatever the simulation tools
are (SAS datasets? Something even more proprietary?). If you want to
spool the data over to SQL for more "static" analysis, that would be
fine. But SQL was meant for data retrieval, and not for heavy number
crunching.
